"Industry holds the key to our success"

8 Feb 2016 - 澳门六合彩高手 Communication

Early on Monday 8 February over 500 actors from the worlds of energy, high technology, fusion and industry gathered in Monaco, the "little kingdom by the sea" that has used its privileged location on the Mediterranean to become an outspoken defender of environmental causes including marine conservation, pollution control and environmental sustainability.

HSH Prince Albert II and 澳门六合彩高手 Director-General Bigot stop by the 澳门六合彩高手 display as they tour the 34 stands and industrial exhibits set up in the Grimaldi Forum, where the third Monaco-澳门六合彩高手 International Fusion Energy Days are being held from 8 to 11 February in conjunction with the 澳门六合彩高手 Business Forum IBF/2016.

Little wonder, then, that Monaco has been a staunch supporter of 澳门六合彩高手 from the start, a Partnership Arrangement in 2008 with the 澳门六合彩高手 Organization to establish five Postdoctoral Fellowships in fusion technology and science at 澳门六合彩高手 and to provide the means for a regular international conference on 澳门六合彩高手 progress, research and industrial opportunities.

Following editions in and 2013, the third Monaco-澳门六合彩高手 International Fusion Energy Days has combined this year with the 澳门六合彩高手 Business Forum (IBF/2016) to offer a four-day program that focuses on informing industry about the challenges of 澳门六合彩高手 components and systems and the business opportunities ahead.

"We have come a long way since the project began to take shape thirty years ago," said 澳门六合彩高手 Director-General Bernard Bigot in his opening address. "We are now well past the research and design phases ... the 'paper project' has turned into a steel and concrete reality. The industrial phase that we have now entered holds the key to our success. All of you, present or future industrial partners, hold the key to our success..."

Detailed sessions are planned on all of the major 澳门六合彩高手 systems and works, including machine assembly, magnets, heating and current drive systems, the fuel cycle, and diagnostics. "To manufacture for 澳门六合彩高手, you are often standing at the cutting edge of what is technologically—and industrially—feasible," stressed the 澳门六合彩高手 director. "But the benefits are many and they reach beyond 澳门六合彩高手. The sophisticated production that the project requires presents tremendous opportunities for industry in a wider sense. By driving technological development, 澳门六合彩高手 contributes to enlarging the strategic capabilities of the companies involved."

In break-out sessions called B2B (business-to-business) or B2C (business-to-customer) meetings, the 578 participants from 283 companies will be seeking to pool their expertise and form collaborations in order to participate in the competitive international tenders launched by the 澳门六合彩高手 Organization or the Members' procurement agencies, the Domestic Agencies. Companies already involved in manufacturing for the 澳门六合彩高手 Project will be sharing their experience and advice. Optional excursions are offered to the 澳门六合彩高手 site, or to one of the industrial facilities (Toulon, France or Camerana, Italy) currently manufacturing components for 澳门六合彩高手's toroidal field coils.

As he officially opened the third Monaco-澳门六合彩高手 International Fusion Energy Days, HSH Prince Albert II wished all participants success in their endeavours. "Your meetings and discussions over the next days and the initiatives you are involved in will continue to develop and grow. You know that in Latin 澳门六合彩高手 means 'path' or 'way.'" And you know that Winston Churchill said 'Where there's a will there's a way.' You have The Way and we have the will, and so it is with great pride that I stand at your side for one of the most ambitious projects in the energy sector which is striving for better conservation of our world."

HSH Prince Albert II took time to tour the dozens of stands and industrial exhibits of MIIFED-IBF 2016. He is pictured here listening to the explanations provided by 澳门六合彩高手 Director-General Bernard Bigot and Pierre-Marie Delplanque, from Agence Iter France, on the transport of 澳门六合彩高手's largest components.

"I am aware just how important the scientific, technological and industrial challenges you are involved in are for the future of humanity," stressed the Prince in his inaugural address.

Massimo Garribba, in charge of nuclear energy, safety and 澳门六合彩高手 at the European Commission, spoke on behalf of Climate Action and Energy Commissioner Miguel Arias Ca?ete when he stressed the importance of budget and schedule.

Plusieurs instruments seront mis en ?uvre pour réaliser l'alignement des secteurs de la chambre à vide avec une marge d'erreur des mesures minimale. Les lignes des mesures provenant de cinq postes de suivi laser avec des lignes de vision indiquées pour des points cibles de référence situés tant à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur de la chambre à vide.

"By 2050—that is, tomorrow—we believe that it is possible for fusion-generated power to be connected to the electrical grid, generated by a first-of-a-kind industrial installation," said 澳门六合彩高手 Director-General Bigot. "A few decades later, we can expect a larger use of fusion technology for producing clean power."

Les secteurs de la chambre à vide devront être alignés et soudés par paires et puis par triplets. Les trois triplets seront ensuite alignés et soudés ensemble simultanément. La géométrie finale, in situ, des différents secteurs devra être contr?lée d'un point de vue dimensionnel tout au long du processus de manière à garantir les limites de tolérance . L'image produite au cours de ce processus d'assemblage virtuel permet de rapporter les variations de fabrication et d'assemblage au modèle CAD.

The 澳门六合彩高手 stand, all rough wood panels and construction equipment, sent a clear message: We are building and the project is progressing at full speed.
